God is incredible. I wish I had words to describe how amazing He is...

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God." Mark 10:27

This summer has been a huge blessing.

I have a lot of work to do.

    I know! I didn't think I would be able to see you again until camp next year! I'm happy I was wrong. =) I wish you could have been here for the whole week too! Jen Julia and I would have loved it! Next time maybe you can stay here longer. =) The whole meeting was great! My two favorite sermons were Having A Mind Like Christ and What Heaven is All About. I really learned a lot from the whole week and it was so much fun being able to see everyone every evening. =)

    I'm doing good. stayin' busy. =)

    Ah you are lucky! I only get the thursday and friday of thanksgiving. But xmas break makes up for it though. =) and I actally get to have my birthday off this way.

    What classes in school are you taking?
    by gemma at 11/18/09 5:35PM
  • gemma
    Thanks! Hope you had a good holiday too. =)
    Mine is january 13th. When is yours?
    I'm taking Biology and History next semester. I'm taking composition 2, chemestry, algebra, singing and violin this semester. Music and English is easy. Math and chem is tough but they just ammended the rules for the math class which was great! Before, they had it if you didn't finish all the computer chapters by the end of the semester, you got an F whether you were really working hard and just struggling or not. Then they were chosen for course evaluations and they got a pretty "no nonsense" evaluation from me and apparently from a lot of other students about the grading system. I got an email this morning saying they had decided to change it so I'm pretty happy. I'm still going to be staying late at school to get back to where I need to be by the end of the semester but at least I won't have an F on my permanent record. =)

    So this weekend has been pretty awesome. Spending time with lots of family and getting an email pretty much saying things are going to be getting better at school. =)
    by gemma at 11/28/09 12:42PM
  • gemma
    Ah, december 21st. So does your family combine your birthday and christmas?

    Yeah, I'm glad I'm not going to fail too. That would be my first F I think and I'm not interested in the "first time for everything" in that. =)

    Uhm, well, I don't make the scratchy noise on the violin much anymore. =P I can't play about 6 or 7 short song. The aren't really much, just beginner songs...the ones with the kiddie titles. There is actually one in there called "The Happy Farmer". The perfect concert piece right? =P But that will get get better in time. Do you play any instruments? You may have told me before but sadly I'm having trouble remembering anything much outside of schoolwork this semester. =/

    Hey! That's fine. It's been busy here too. I didn't know about the studies in Indiana until they were already over. =( Oh yes, I'm sure the preschooler would be so attentive too. =P I don't start school until the 14th. My break has been very nice but it kind of seems like it's been too short. =P I'd love to come visit but I wouldn't be able to do it before school starts. =( My parents are going out of town and I need to stay here and help take care of my grandparents and the house while they are gone. You should come here though. =) I wouldn't mind having some more company while mom and dad are away. =) How was your break?
    by gemma at 01/09/10 1:59PM
  • gemma
    Mine was great too. =) A little stressful though. I was glad to get back to school so I could check on someone I was studying with, but everything is fine now. =) I'm taking six academic classes so I'm staying pretty busy with homework and everything.

    No, I can't go to lectures. I have school during that time and I don't have a ride. I've been wanting to go for a while now but I've never had the opportunity. Maybe next year I can get a academic "vacation" to "see" FC and attend lectures then when Jennifer is there. I'd love to go, but till then I'm stuck here I guess. =P

So she is going to be staying in my room for a week. She has taken over my room already. I looked at her and she said JUST CALL ME ROOMIE!! She came in with a giant suitcase. :P haha oh well.
